I didn't have a clue.
Everyone was happy as long as housing prices kept going up. When loans went bad, the collateral could be sold to pay off the mortgage. So everybody just kept keeping on. As soon as the collateral became worth less than the mortgage did the shite hit the fan.

I assume many Americans trust that they elect people to understand this nuance, and protect us from their pitfalls.

Please, lay out all that is uninformed in this thread and on this board. My initial dumb troll comparison to draw people into a discussion?
Everyone is always happy when things are good for them. People were thrilled in the 1920s, I guess they had nobody to blame but themselves when it all came tumbling down.
The idea that the commoner can even begin to grasp this highly complex shite in real time, with much propaganda flying about, is absurd and childish. By this measure of zero accountability, we shouldn't even have a government at all.
People don't write thousands of pages of law, they don't litigate either. Lawyers do. I guess people should have voted out their leadership. Super easy task with all of the gerrymandering in this era. Never mind the fact that bills are voted on and then altered by a select few, behind closed doors, in a committee.
It's all so easy to see.

Jesus, way to rip a poster a new one on a college-football message board. shite, that would be like people accusing me of being a flip/flopper for not initially opposing the Patriot Act when I was in 5th grade. I think I was a bit more worried about Pokemon cards and Dragon Ball Z than domestic spying.
